Red Cross blood drive planned Aug. 25 in Massena

Posted

MASSENA -- The Massena American Legion, 40 E. Orvis St., is hosting a Red Cross blood drive in honor of Stephanie McKeel from 11:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, Aug. 25.

McKeel is a 2016 graduate of Massena Central High School who recently underwent a lung transplant that required blood transfusions.

"Having a blood drive in Stephanie's honor is our way of giving back to the community," said Lisa McKeel, Stephanie's mother. "Having blood available for Stephanie's surgery saved her life. We're asking blood donors to please come out, and help us give hope to others."
